Mon Dec 7 22:51:08 2020, Alex M, Important Runs
|
Today I removed some of the run directories which had very little or no data or weren't worth keeping around. There are still a few that I think
can be removed, but I'm keeping them until we can get a consensus that they can definitely be removed. Below I listed the names and descriptions of
the runs that I think we should definitely preserve going forward. In general, the more data contained in the run directory, the more important it is to |
Wed Dec 2 15:24:39 2020, Alex M, Guide for Loop Errors
|
Attached is a .txt file you can find in the Evolutionary_Loop directory as Loop_Error_List.txt. It's a list of the current errors we sometimes experience
in the loop, along with how to fix them if you encounter them while running. If people encounter errors that aren't in the list, let everyone know
in the #genstudents chat on slack and update the file with the error message and when it was encountered (what state the loop was in) and the possible |

Kept working with Amy, Alex P, Julie, and Ben on the AraSim
fix. We fixed our issue from last week but have a new one in stage 2. It looks like the issue has to do with resetting the values for V_forfft right before
stage 2 (around line 963). Check here for the current version of Report.cc: /users/PAS0654/pattonalexo/EFieldProject/11_23_20

We worked with Amy to track down the
error we were getting with the AraSim fix. Alex P and I had gotten AraSim to compile, but running gave the error (at the bottom). We did a binary search
for the source of the error and determined it comes from the if statement around line 640 in Report.cc: |

I hopped on with Alex M to catch him up with what has been done and changed within AraSim so far. I looked into using pointers to access arrays outside
of their declared scope and it seemed reletively easy to set up. I set up a pointer corresponding to the arrays V_forfft, T_forfft, and vmmhz_filter
and set them at the end of stage one in order to be used in stage two. Also made sure to delete the pointers at the end of stage 2 (Very Important). After |

I just wanted to give an update on what I've been doing today for GENETIS. I went ahead and recorded myself running the loop. It should be useful
for new people we're onboarding but I also went through a whole generation, which I think is interesting for everyone to understand the timescale of
each part of the loop. I'm making a small edit (I have no clue how to edit videos haha) so once I'm done I'll try to send it via email and |

generations. The second one is ongoing and is shown up through generation 9 on the power point. |
